Voda is only one of my shares , primarily for income. I also have 3 oil exploration companies, one of which is a fracking outfit in Surrey. Another one is a long term punt, ATYM, the largest copper belt mine in Spain. Its biggest drawback is it is run by the Spanish, so if it ever makes a profit, we probably will not see it. Not that there is any corruption in Spain.

SP of �1.50 = 5p old money

Consolidation price was 4.75, ..ie more or less than we are now.

I thought SP would continue down at 2.05 so that I could add 5000 more. Waited, instead of buying, now the divi date is approaching the rise is greater than the divi. May have to look elsewhere until price drops the day after divi date in November.

I am glad your patience has been rewarded. Wish I was in a position to do the same. 25K gap is too big a loss before I can break even. Good luck with future ventures, or put it in the Post office for £2 a year interest.

Nothing changes. It's been jam tomorrow for all the years inc Emed. If we live long enough, the push for electric cars will force the copper price up in spite of atym and their disregard of pi's . I also think the Chinese and their large holding have a lot to do with this. They, unlike the Western world are happy to kill us with slowly, slowly catchie monkey.. They have waited nearly 70 years to pay us back for backing the wrong man. Another year on the calender. I hope you sold a % at profit and keeping some back for a double whammy. ATB

The Chinese hold a large stake in this, which they paid 15p in the old days. They need 4.50p to break even, although they could sell for less if given a pro rata stake in the buyer's company I agree with Jonjo, this will stagnate again now. I see no sign of £2 this year, even though I would like to be proved wrong. You could leave your shares to your grandchildren so that they may live long enough to collect a divi.

If I remember correctly, back when Emed banner. The Chines paid 15p per share, so they need £4.50 to break even. They have the advantage of being still alive by then, unlike me.

I thought you were 1.80. Who cares, I am pleased to see one of the Emed players finally break even. £3 for me is still a long way off. If you also think of 10 years compound interest of money in a deposit, my losses are even greater. But that's all part of the fun of throwing money into the Lotto, better known as AIM. Well done for hanging in for there.

Based on 21p old money, you need circa £6 per share. I thought I was bad enough at £3. You must have been here at least 8 years. That's a long time to wait and still lose money. I think we will have to accept to take a loss unless we live long enough to get a telegram from the Queen.

affects low liquid aim shares......that's us to a tee.

Down 116 to zero. RSVP anyone

The way things are going we will be £1 per Euro, so Voda should be cash rich.

But at least it's gone up 3p. Chances of doing world free trade looks like it's gone out the window if we concede to free trade with the EU. Plus anything between 40 and 100 billion penalty, so that we can continue with a 90 billion trade deficit.

Re your post on 27th May. Anyone that was foolish enough to be convinced would be nearly 50% down by now. I think we are satisfied with being 50% down here without looking for more adventure.

Quite normal, but this time I think the price prior was being held back because of the slight uncertainty over the election outcome. Therefore, if the Tories do win we could regain 4p or more, so holding on for the divi may pay ''dividends''

''to replicate our success at Rio Tinto mine''....ie. wipe out 60% of your investment.. Can't wait..!!

I am pleased to hear you are almost out of the woods at 1.80. I need almost double that, but perhaps it will long after I shed this mortal coil. ATB

Which one,,Mr O or Jonjo

Notice for Smiler, Farmer, Not Guilty etc. Changed my email to.....buzz.bb135@gmail.com .Hope you are all well and we can live long enough to break even. ATB
